KJ was on pace for 2,130 yds & 29 TDs after Washington win. Shonn, in 2008, was 6th in the Heisman Vote & Doak Walker winner (1,850 yds & 20 TDs)

Other than our record why do you think he's being so disrespected?

Iowa's of no interest to the Heisman panel of 2024. This is all about ratings and money.

The Oregon QB, Boise State RB and others are putting up big #s and stats

Numbers are cool and all, but as much as I like Kaleb Johnson, he's no Shonn Greene . . . at least not yet . . . no matter what the numbers say. Greene literally ran over people like a bulldozer and still had top end speed. Johnson has a different style. I've haven't seen him bulldoze anyone, and he's been caught from behind most of the time. I hope Johnson ends up somewhere close to Greene, but I'll reserve judgment for now. I'm a whole lot more interested in what he's going to do against Minnesota and Ohio State than what he's done against Illinois State and Troy.

Iowa has to win out in order for KJ to have a remote chance!
Gotta be ranked and in the mix for your player to be considered otherwise just not enough respect to the player regardless of good stats.
